Not for another few decades. We ships not rush this.

 @9YDSY9Lfrom Alberta  answered…2wks2W

Not at this time. More research and a lot more is needed.

 @9Y9MXMCfrom British Columbia  answered…2wks2W

No. I dont trust other people on the road so why would i trust a computer

 @9XYC3PVfrom Ontario  answered…2wks2W

At this time the technology is not good enough. There are plenty of reports of cars auto-correcting people into dangers and accidents as is.

 @9XRQKJ5from Manitoba  answered…3wks3W

Yes. They were cleared as safe by factories, they mustn’t be too large a hazard.

 @9XKHHX5from Ontario  answered…3wks3W

no they seem unsafe and a robot is not driving my grandma around

 @9XKGYP2Liberalfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

No. If a car crash happens, you cannot hold a machine accountable.

 @9XK85H8New Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

I think it's other drivers on the road that I do not trust.

 @9XK6M44Conservative from Ontario  answered…3wks3W

Yes as long it is a tesla or big company except and no china cars

 @9XJDXXWfrom Nova Scotia  answered…3wks3W

Science says its better then humans right now. until that says otherwise I will.

 @9XHQN82from Nova Scotia  answered…3wks3W

No, self driving cars don't have the reasoning skills or reaction time of humans.

 @9XGVL6Sfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

i would because they likeliness of it messing up is low

 @9XCVW48from Ontario  answered…3wks3W

No, there are too many possible errors for me to trust my car to be driven by AI.

 @9X9YLZNConservativefrom British Columbia  answered…3wks3W

Yes but only with lots of testing and a manual override

 @9X4XJVHfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

no i would not trust them because and human is more aware and physically there.

 @9X4QKMVfrom Manitoba  answered…3wks3W

yes and no i believe someone should always be behind the wheel in case of emergency. though i do trust them.

 @9X4DW33from Ontario  answered…3wks3W

no beacause it doesnt think and have thoughts as us humans

 @9X4CDV5Liberalfrom Prince Edward Island  answered…3wks3W

No, not really. AI is not tested enough to drive a car. Plus, we don't want to lose our freedom of knowing how to drive, and going places whenever we please.

 @9X3Z4PFConservativefrom British Columbia  answered…3wks3W

Not at the moment. More testing must be done and approved by professionals

 @9WZW3CWfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

No I wouldn't because the self driving car could be hacked leading to bad outcomes.

 @9WZTYPXfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

no absolutely not as self driving cars can malfunction and kill people.

 @9WZ55P8 from Ontario  answered…3wks3W

At the moment no, the technology is too recent, I feel much more testing is required, before we can start to implement this technology on the roads.

Texas Offers Trump 1,400 Acres for His Mass Deportation Dream

Officials in Texas have offered President-elect Trump a 1,400-acre ranch for his mass deportation plan.Dawn Buckingham, land commissioner of the Texas General Land Office, said in a letter to Trump Tuesday that her office was “fully prepared” to work with federal agencies that are going to be involved in Trump’s immigration plan, and specifically deportation.Buckingham offered Trump a 1,402-acre lot in Starr County. The lot is owned by the Texas General Land Office and is roughly 35 miles west of McAllen, Texas.She said the agency is ready to work with the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or the U.S. Border Patrol to build a facility on the land for “the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history.”“I am committed to using every available means at my disposal to gain complete operational security of our border,” Buckingham wrote.The letter and offering of land were first reported by The Texas Tribune. Last month, the state bought the land along the U.S.-Mexico border and has plans to build a wall.In the letter, Buckingham criticized her predecessor for not allowing a border wall to be built on the property. Those actions “enabled cartel members and violent criminals to sexually abuse migrant women and children on this land,” she said.On Monday, Trump signaled he would declare an immigration national emergency and use military assets to support his mass deportation plan when he returns to office.

International Criminal Court Issues Arrest Warrant For Netanyahu

The International Criminal Court on Thursday issued arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel and the former Israeli defense minister, Yoav Gallant, for crimes against humanity and war crimes in the Gaza Strip.Karim Khan, the court’s chief prosecutor, had requested the arrest warrants in May for the two Israelis, alongside three top Hamas officials. Israel has fiercely contested the court’s allegations, which include the use of starvation as a weapon of war and “intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population.”The court on Thursday also issued a warrant for the arrest of Muhammad Deif, Hamas’s military chief, for crimes against humanity, including murder, hostage taking and sexual violence. Israel said in August that it had killed Mr. Deif. Mr. Khan had also sought arrest warrants for Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas, and Ismail Haniyeh, another top figure in the militant group, both of whom were later killed by Israel.The warrants added to Israel’s declining legitimacy on the world stage, where it has faced increasingly fierce condemnation over its conduct of the war against Hamas in Gaza. Israel insists that it fights in accordance with the international laws of war.
